I have been playing semi-regularly at MoMA for the past few years, but recently, I received a series of assignments from them, which are the largest in volume to date: I will be accompanying 17 screenings over 12 days!! This is undoubtedly the most intensive period in my performing career, and I am excited about this opportunity. If you happen to be in midtown from August 23 to September 3, please drop by and watch some silent films. I’ll be there almost every day, with just a few “off” days.
MoMA is resuming its silent film screening events with live audience this month, with the ambitious “Biograph/Edison: Restorations and Rediscoveries from the Collection” program which was originally scheduled in March 2020. And I was the last pianist played for the series before it was canceled due to MoMA’s shutdown due to the pandemic.
Following the success of the critically-acclaimed “Pioneers of African Cinema” 2 years ago, Kino Lorber is releasing its 2nd special Blu-ray/DVD box set today. The much-anticipated “Pioneers: First Women Filmmakers” puts a spotlight on the first women filmmakers in the early days of cinema.
